Question by Cyberboy003: How does US Dollar affect other currencies? I’m relatively new to these type of topics, but I was just wondering how the US dollar, as the world’s reserve currency, affects the value of the currencies of other countries. Is there anywhere I can read about the relationship of the USD to the rest of the world’s currencies? Any academic sources perhaps?

For example, to make it simple: I live in Australia – what would happen to the Australian Dollar if the USD crashed and there was hyper-inflation over there? Would there be hyper-inflation here as well?

Thanks.

Answer by Dthe us dollar is the leaders saying everything around us is theirs then they lend it to the people with debt attached , you begin to slowly pay it back with taxes and by listening to their very orders they give you in case you don’t work….when that debt is repayed they take everything you bought back and feel its time for you to “go” they disrespect and ambarass at the saeme time when you are supposed to make you children owe you then they just end up disrespecting and you end up embarrassing them because you lent them your power … so maybe now you can figue how it does…not all guys will make their children repay them just ones who compete its a female in nature thing…as in male zodiacs will make you owe them food and that’s why should be two currency floating around but they do whatever they want…they will begin to talk as soon as its brought anything it is a defensive “Move” so you think their useful….I do economy vote for me

Question by goldy: Does the Outlook for the Industry Present an Attractive Opportunity? If someone has a non profit organization that promotes living a “green life” or a sustainable lifestyle does the outlook for an organization in that type of industry present attractive opportunities, if so what opportuinities do you foresee?

Best answer:

Answer by CaliforniaBiodieselWhen setting up a 501(c) 3 non-profit the primary purpose is to help individual people in some concrete way. You have to be able to measure the success of of that help. Funding is about being a funnel for money to help as many people as you can, not for the organization.

I was involved in a organization that should have been a trade association (another type of non-profit) but was setup as a 501c3. We had to change the focus of the group to education on our green topic but never was able to get any funding so the group has now closed.

Get educated about the different types of non-profits there are and how non-profits work before starting a new one. The Foundation Center offers classes on non-profit organization and fundraising at many cities across the country. Search out if there is an organization already established that is close to what you want to do and join it and see if this is the type of work you like to do. You can propose a project that is specific to what you want to do and then try to get funding for it through that existing organization.

I personally started a green for profit business because it is easier to get funding and seed capital for green businesses here.

Question by Dannyy: Prenuptial agreement when getting married for a green card? Hello friends. I have been in the USA for 2 years already, currently living in New York. I hold the student status F-1, and I am planning on getting married for the green card. I met a woman who is an american citizen, and a great friend of mine. We have a whole lot in common, and she would like to help me attain my green card by getting married with me. Now here is my concern. I currently don’t have any money saved up, neither I do have assets, however I work on my business, and I don’t want to share anything I earn in the near future with her. Whatever is mine is mine, whatever is hers is hers. How do I sign a prenuptial agreement in my case? And do I have to show it to the judges as I am getting marriend, or do I only show it, if I apply for a divorce. I don’t want this to be an obstacle for me obtaining my green card. On the other hand, I don’t want anybody in this marriage to take advantage of the other person. Can I sign a prenuptial agreement that I don’t want to share anything I earn?

Best answer:

Answer by GooberThis is illegal. No lawyer will write you a prenup based on illegal activities.

Question by aalliiccee13: How would I get a intern-like job (non-payed) in a renewable energy company? I’m 16, and will be 17 by the summer, I’m still in Secondary school and I would really like to get some sort of insight into renewable energy over the summer, as I would like to persue a career in that field. I live in Ayr in Scotland, so it would have to be near there possibly out to glasgow. I’ve no idea how to go about it, and I don’t know what company I could go to either. The company I could think of is EDF Energy. I thought of maybe writing an email and asking if I could come in and maybe help out, getting coffee etc. Any help would be great!

Best answer:

Answer by MariaResearch a list of companies in your area, or close to where you live. Look under their “careers” page on their websites to determine if they have any internship positions available. If they do, apply for them. If not, contact the company and describe how interested you are in renewable energy and that you would be willing to intern/help over the summer.

I hope this helps! Being proactive usually helps in cases like these. You never know what will happen if you don’t try!

Question by Jonny B: How extensively is Saint Patrick’s Day celebrated where you live? I live in Connecticut and it is huge here. As kids we celebrated at school by wearing green and the teachers would always have a tiny party for us. As an adult, nearly every restaurant has corned beef and cabbage, and now that people are more educated about it most restaurants will have several authentic Irish dishes. Most bars will have Irish singers for the week(s) leading up to St Patrick’s Day.

I realize that it is because we have a large Irish descent population, but how about other parts of the country?

Best answer:

Answer by [Shut^and kiss me]we dont really do alot we do dress in all green and have parties in schools but they dont serve corned beef and cabbage but i think we should do more we have like the green beer and all that but i think it should all be about st. patricks day i am irish so thats what i think but many would disagree with me they are haters!

Question by H: Is it better to wed a Canadian and American in Canada if they wish to live in the US? It seems this would disqualify the need for a K-1 visa, but would it accelerate the process of getting the green card when the Canadian emigrated? Would the couple still have to attend USCIS marriage interviews?

Answer by RayHereThe only thing that speeds it up if the American partner has live in the home country to the person he/she has married for one day over a year then you can apply in the home country takes weeks not years there really not just a USCIS ”marriage” interview unless they suspect something is up

Question by Awesomeness1456: Exterior walls built for indoor insulation? I want to build an eco-friendly, energy efficient, green home.

Question by Michael S: Why haven’t the chilis on my plants tured from green to orange? I live in England and have been growing Cheyenne chili peppers outdoors. The plant has produced a reasonable amount of good sized fruit so all of this is fine. However, the chilis have not turned from green to the orange that they are meant to be. The harvest time for the plant is August onwards so surely this should of happened, or at least started to happen by now? Does anyone know why this may not have happened? Any ideas/suggestions/advice gratefully received! Serious answers only please. Oh, and i’m pretty sure it is not to do with the temperature here as it has been a warm/hot summer so I doubt this is the cause.

Best answer:

Answer by David Athe temperature and climate does indeed have something to do with it. But give them a few more weeks. Cyanne peppers are grown in warmer climes. I live in deep south Texas and my peppers sometimes don’t change color ’till September.

Question by Vern: How do I build a Shipping Container Home? I am getting ready to build my first home , however I refuse to live in a traditional, expensive, non eco-friendly house. I have decided that I am going to build a very unique and sturdy shipping container home. However I have no idea how to do that. Does anyone know of any builders, designers, plans, resources, etc. that specialize in the construction and financing of a shipping container house?

Best answer:

Answer by jakebThere a house near here made with a couple shipping containers. It wasn’t low cost or easy, and I don’t really see how it is eco-friendly. It is very sturdy and may be practically tornado proof though. You still need documentation for snow loads and wind loads and insulation values for your permits. This may entail a structural engineer.
